I'm really curious about the deliberative process for choosing your room dimensions. Would really appreciate if you'd enlighten us as to what factored into your decision.
Did the design group give you different sets of dimensions and discuss the pros and cons of each from an acoustic perspective? |
Thanks!
Room dimensions: Mastering is Louden 3, all the other rooms have been designed to fit our needs and fit within available space - and after these two requirements have been fulfilled the design was checked for room modes, tweaked... But keep in mind that John Storyk has designed hundreds of rooms and has lots of experience - and knows very well what might work and what to avoid.
Of course the acoustic perspective was discussed, but not in terms of one set of dimensions vs another. We made it very clear that we want the best we can pay for - and I'm pretty sure we won't get less... When you build something like this there is NO WAY you would want to compromise on acoustics
About a month after we had our first meeting where we determined what we wanted (Room programming, noise criteria,...) we received 3 different aproaches and decided for one - but it was more a choice of layout and workflow, client comfort than an acoustic decision. I'm sure they would all have worked equally well.
